Iconic Ireland – Travel to Ireland without Leaving Your Desk

This unit study is designed to cover the most iconic places and symbols of Ireland. It is like a field trip without leaving your desk or classroom. I have included full-color photographs of the actual places that are being discussed. For each location, there is a small learning activity to correspond with a wide array of subjects being covered.

There are enough activities to do one or two per day, in a one-month period. You can, of course, shorten it or make it spread out longer. There is no specific order in which to do each project. This would be an excellent project to do during the month of March. However, it would be enjoyable at any time.

Iconic Places Include:

  • Twelve Bens
  • Limerick
  • Conor Pass
  • St. Patrick’s Cathedral – Dublin
  • St. Patrick’s Cathedral – Armagh
